‘Hamilton’ cast ‘thrilled’ after Obama and his girls see it

NEW YORK (AP) — The current American president took a trip back in time Saturday to visit some of the country’s early leaders in the hip-hop musical “Hamilton” on Broadway, leaving the young cast jazzed and beaming.

Barack Obama and his daughters caught a Saturday matinee of Lin-Manuel Miranda’s celebrated show about the first four presidents, the Founding Fathers and especially the nation’s first treasury secretary, Alexander Hamilton.
